Karaoké Fireflies Owl City

You would not believe your eyes if ten million fireflies

Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cos they'd fill the open air and leave teardrops everywhere

You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

'Cos everything is never as it seems

'Cos I'd get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs

As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head a sock hop beneath my bed

A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

'Cos everything is never as it seems

Leave my door open just a crack

'Cos I feel like such an insomniac

Why do I tire of counting sheep

When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies

I'm weird 'cos I hate goodbyes

I got misty eyes as they said farewell

But I'll know where several are if my dreams get real bizarre

'Cos I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

'Cos everything is never as it seems

I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

'Cos everything is never as it seems

I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake

When I'm asleep because my dreams are bursting at the seams
